Pros: Vehicle was clean, desk clerk was well mannered and professional. Checkout and return were quick.

Cons: Only 2 parking spots by office. Gate employee was annoyed when I couldn't produce inspection form- he was more annoyed when he saw it in the cup holder! How am I to know what a veh insp form is??? Had to find a creepy swing gate in back fence to get to where my truck was parked. Gate guy and desk guy fist bumped and talked sports at desk- didn't seem very professional (they were both 25 y/o African American, I am 55 y/o Christian/ Anglo/ Veteran) ...awkward.

Rip Off Second Driver

Pros: The bus shuttle drivers.

Cons: We were NOT told that the second driver cost $74 extra for 6 days. When I returned the vehicle, I listened to others who were starting their rental transactions and they were NOT told of the fee. I told the other renters to watch out when I was in line. The staff apologized for "forgetting" to mention it to them but not happy. Staff does not know how to recognize a customer waiting in line. Do they even know or care I'm there?
I unfortunately didn't look at my contract when I signed it as I trusted Kayak. My bad though but I am not happy. We never used the other driver as I added one just to be "safe" so I wouldn't invalidate my contract just in case I needed the second driver. The vehicle was fine but the staff from the people who inspected the cars to the rental staff acted like sophomoric high school boys being unsupervised. The shuttle drivers on the other hand were kind and helpful.

Not overly impressed

Pros: I was provided a Toyota Camry, which was convenient since our family drives a similar upgraded model at home.

Cons: The car had 32K miles, bald tires undetected for the first 4 days and damaged front grill from prior drivers running into parking curbs (I had to snap loose parts back in place prior to leaving the lot on day 1). Camry's have little front end clearance and should always be backed into parking locations to prevent this problem. As with most other car rental companies, Advantage attaches all car keys to a heavy cable for the Rental company convenience - not the customer. They keys must be detachable to permit at least one key to remain with the customer comfortably. Suggest revising this process and make the customer responsible for any lost keys. Use Advantage Again- Humm????

Missinformation from employees lead to disaster.

Pros: Car was comfortable to drive.

Cons: I called the night before my drop off to make sure there would be a shuttle available early in the morning. I was planning on dropping off at 5:30am. I was told that not only would there not be a shuttle but that the location would not be open until 6am and I could not return until that time which would make me miss my flight. I ended up having to change my flight to a later time which cost $150. When I went to return the car at 6am I saw that they were open at 5am for drop offs. I will never use Advantage again.

Buyer Beware

Pros: Access to a bathroom at the pickup location.
Found my charger/cell phone dock before i left them.

Cons: 1)Pickup van took 45 minutes to get to the airpiort on arrival.
2) We called 10 minutes before we returned to have them keep the van since we were running late. The guy on the phone said the van was there. The van left right as we pulled in, the driver just looking at us as we frantically waived her down.
3) On arrival the clerk told us the fuel prebuy would be prorated if we brought back the tank at half.
4) The person checking the car at the beginning and end had zero experience at costumer service, bordering on rudeness.
5) The car was 4,000 miles past service when we discovered the warning on our 3rd day.
6) The clerk was visibly annoyed when I kept asking what the items I was initializing were about.
7) Was given an SUV upgrade which was ok, but really wanted a more economic car.
Please pay the couple of dollars extra and go with a good rental company, namely any but this one. You have been warned. We expect better of Kayak, they should remove this company from their list of recommended companies.

Cons: The staff at the Love Field Hertz branch are rude and disrespectful. I generally rent from Enterprise, but went with cheaper price this time. You get what you pay for. Needless to say I am dissapointed with the quality of their customer service.

Costly Confusion!

Cons: When we arrived at the San Antonio airport, I was told our rental was not at the airport but at another site. My fault for missing that detail. The Hertz agent at the airport said it would cost 4x more to rent at the airport. We decided to take a taxi to the site. Much to our surprise, the agent gave us an outdated map with address of the location. They had moved so we went to the wrong address and finally called to get the right address $40 later. Disappointing way to start our vacation. We were hit with extra costs that were not explained clearly. Not a good deal. Don't plan to go with Hertz again!

Good Experience

Pros: Renting the car went very smooth. First I confirmed the car online the type of car, where we'll pick it up & drop off. The price, and any other things I wanted. This was easy fairly fast I got a confirmation #. I went picked up the car was great. Went easy, fairly fast & I was on my way. I had to extend the rental for a day that was easy & dropping it off was also easy. So the whole experience was very good. I would rent a car this way again.

Cons: Don't have any big complaint the only thing I didn't like was trying to find the place was confusing. They have a big sign that says "return rentals" yet it is also where you go in the office to rent the cars. We drove around for 10-15 min when he finally asked someone & we found out it was the entrance too.

Pros: Met our needs 100% and we even got a refund because we turned it in early. The car was clean, reliably well maintained and comfortable.

Alamo office closed at night, not 24/7

Pros: There were 7 people in line ahead of us for 1 customer service person, and he managed to process all of us very efficiently. However, he was a National customer service agent handling Alamo reservations.

Cons: We arrived late due to a delayed flight. The Alamo office, which is supposed to be 24/7, was closed and its reservations were being handled by the National office. 3 rental companies total were being handled by the 1 person in the National office, so the line was really long.

Only complaint, and it's a small one. I still use paper maps, and there are much better free maps available for the city than the little one they were handing out at the service desk.

Pros: Service and professionalism was very good along with the cleanliness of the car. The upgrade without question due to being short cars was handled well also.

Cons: It's a little difficult and tight getting in and out of the actual location.

Pros: The staff was very helpful. I missed my reservation and they got me in a car immediately anyway. When I returned it, I forgot to fill my gas, but they let me out to refill it nearby, no problem. Also, when I finally did return it, they ran through the rain and handled all of the paperwork for me, quickly. I was very pleased!

Cons: The location is not exactly close by the terminal, but the free shuttle gets you back and forth fairly quickly.

Overall poor visit

Cons: Signed up for a Rav 4 Toyota size vehicle for our two person trip but Enterprise did not have one. (We wanted the Rav 4 since I am thinking about buying one with my next auto purchase.) They substituted a larger SUV, Kia Sorrento which was much too big for two people. The car was not ready and the salesperson said it would take 10 minutes to vacuum the car. I waited and when the car was given to me it was dirty. I asked about why the car wasn't washed, he said I could wait longer. We also disputed about the negociated price including insurance cost. I drove the car and then returned it for a (hopefully) full refund, and then drove my own car.

Cons: it took more than 20 minutes for customers in front of me to receive their vehicle. The agent was very courteous but, not sure why it was so hard to locate a vehicle to rent. Aren't vehicles readily available for customers? And the same happened for me but it only took about 10 minutes. The vehicle I did receive was clean inside and out with the exception of the all the stains on the back and front seats. If I had been traveling with my family I would have demanded another vehicle.

The man behind the counter charged me $66 for prepay fuel but told me if the vehicle was brought back full then the $66 would be refunded.

Pros: Pickup was very easy. The car was waiting and paperwork/price was as advertised

Pros: The manager resolved my issues with them not having a car for me on the lot as best he could. He was courteous and professional and the staff was friendly despite having irate customers. That made the whole experience a reason I would use them again.

Cons: I pre-booked a compact SUV and when I arrived, but after I did the paperwork and paid/put down deposit, was told the only vehicle on the entire lot was a mini-van. That was my only option otherwise I'd have to return the following day to get the car type I reserved. Apparently this is a common problem.
